Holly man, it's coming quick. Well I'd describe it as a slow quickness, that seems to go by slow, yet the end point seems so close (if that makes any sense at all).
Anyways, I am now at the 4 week mark, omg, 4 weeks and then im gone for the year! I have 11/2 weeks left at work before I go to Ottawa/Gatineau for my training (for a week) then one last week at home until I depart. Im flying to Ottawa from Toronto for my training (I know, it seems a little obsessive, but it's only $20 more and saves me 9hrs of travel time!) so as you can see it's a pretty sweet deal.
Got most of what I need...backpacking backpack, mosquito net, first aid kit (hopefully won't be needing that too much), bug spray, headlamp, blah blah blah. Hopefully itll all fit into my 2 baggage allowance (one of which will be my backpack).
It's so good to be able to read my friends' blogs who are currently on their coops. Following their experiences so far and the details of the good/bad have (im sure) subconsciously helped me prepare for my placement. Speaking of preparation, I got together with Nathalie (coop student 1 year older who just got back from Ouagadougou) over the weekend. Thanks Nat! It was great to just sit down and listen to her advice about anything and everything.
Okay, Im not going to drag this out too long (that'll come when im actually on coop ;). I dont have too much more to say, so thanks for reading!
